fuscous, with the cilia pale. Underside pink, with the markings in- 

 distinct and narrow, basal half of forewing suffused with fuscous. 

 The other specimen is slightly browner than the one described here, 

 and was marked " Ampelophaga, sp." by Mr. Moore. (I have a single 

 specimen from Sikhini which agrees very fairly with the typical 

 insect of Bremer from Amurland. — H. J. E.) 



118. A. dolichoides, Feld. 



Sikhim, 1,800 feet. Two specimens taken in July and August. (Of 

 this also I have* only one specimen which came from Mandelli's collec- 

 tion.— H. J. E.) 



Genus Ch^kocampa, Dup. 

 122. C. theylia, Linn. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, up to 5,000 feet. Throughout the year speci- 

 mens may be obtained at light, especially at low elevations, where it is 

 probably the commonest species of the genus. The only type of larva 

 which I have reared in Sikhim is that of the form C. rafflesi, and my 

 description agrees with Sir George Hampson's, except that my larva? 

 were sooty-black with yellow and white spots on the thoracic somites 

 in the subdorsal row, and had the centres of the ocelli ashy-grey, the first 

 one with a yellow line on the upper circumference. The food-plant is 

 Colocasia. C. elpenor, Linn., C. eson, Cramer, and C. vigil, Guer., 

 although recorded from " Throughout India " do not appear to have 

 been taken within the limits specified for this catalogue. 

 123. C. celerio, Linn. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, up to 5,000 feet. July to December. This 

 species appears to be more plentiful at light during the cold weather 

 than in the rain3. 



129. C. busiris, Wlk. 



Sikhim., 1,800 feet. I have only seen three specimens. (One 

 specimen only taken in November. — H. J. E.) 



130. C. variolosa, Wlk. 

 Sikhim and Bhutan. I have not received this species. 



131. C. metallica, Butl. 



Sikhim, 4,000 feet. May. (Occurs not uncommonly in Darjeeling 

 in some seasons. — H. J. E.) 



132. C. antomedon, Wlk. 



Sikhim. I have only seen one specimen. It must be very rare. 

 Mr. Elwes has a single specimen taken in May.
